Abstract
A brief contextual outline of a small joint-funded peripatetic head injury team is described. The measurement needs of the service are listed and their relationship to outcome measures discussed. A number of potential measures are reviewed and discarded on grounds of over-specificity, inapplicability in community settings, inadequate scope, impracticability, and having insufficient published information available about them A trial of a goal-based framework is described and the practical difficulties associated with implementing such a system are explored.
期刊介绍:
Neuropsychological Rehabilitation publishes human experimental and clinical research related to rehabilitation, recovery of function, and brain plasticity. The journal is aimed at clinicians who wish to inform their practice in the light of the latest scientific research; at researchers in neurorehabilitation; and finally at researchers in cognitive neuroscience and related fields interested in the mechanisms of recovery and rehabilitation. Papers on neuropsychological assessment will be considered, and special topic reviews (2500-5000 words) addressing specific key questions in rehabilitation, recovery and brain plasticity will also be welcomed. The latter will enter a fast-track refereeing process.
